Look closer

Today I’d like to invite you to take a closer look at the plants around us.

All too often we focus primarily on the big picture: what the entire garden looks like, or certain areas of it. There’s nothing wrong with that. In fact, a holistic view of the garden is necessary to make smart design decisions. However, don’t forget to stop and not only smell the proverbial roses (which we don’t grow), but also look at the intricate details of leaves and flowers. This macro world is full of beauty and wonder.
